ZenMasta Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 finding and offer are common words that should be included in your English dictionary by default, but currently they show up with red squiggly lines suggesting the word ending and over as corrected spellings. Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 The words "finding" and "offer" are accepted as US English in my copy of Designer. Are you sure you have the spelling language set properly in the Character panel?

ZenMasta Posted March 19, 2019 Author Posted March 19, 2019 I checked the language, and yes. However, I think perhaps it is an issue with converting the document from .ai to .afdesign I saw several other common words in other text boxes highlighted in the same way. If I created a new text box and typed the words manually, then they are accepted without suggesting correction. But if I make a new text box and copy the text from the "old" text box to the new, then it will still suggest a spelling correction. Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 If you highlight (select) the word, and then look in the Character panel, do you still see the proper language? Can you attach the .afdesign file for us to look at?

ZenMasta Posted March 21, 2019 Author Posted March 21, 2019 Yes if highlighted, the word will also show the proper language. To keep the upload doc size low, I just deleted everything except some of the text boxes in question. converted-ai-spell-check-issues.afdesign Quote
carl123 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 The misspelled words contain the letter F followed by the letter L or I (or another F) Such as "profiles" and "reflect" If you try to put your cursor in-between the letters "fi" or "fl" you cannot It is as if "fi" and "fl" are being treated as a single character, which would explain why the spell checker fails I have no idea why/how the above happened. Someone else may be able to offer an explanation for that. Alfred 1 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.
walt.farrell Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Good detective work, @carl123! Ligatures; interesting. @ZenMasta: Did you start by having Designer open your .ai file? If so, Designer would open the PDF contained in the .ai file, and possibly AI produced that file using ligatures for the "fi", "ff", and "fl" character sequences, and then possibly Designer loaded them into the text as the single-character ligatures. That sounds like it should be a bug report, not a feature request. (This problem also exists in Designer 1.7.0.258 beta.)

Alfred Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 When I open the OP’s file in the iPad version of AD, the squiggly underlines only appear under part of the word; e.g. offering, reflect, specific. walt.farrell 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen)
ZenMasta Posted April 4, 2019 Author Posted April 4, 2019 Good observation @carl123. @walt.farrell Yes I started by opening the .ai file in AD. And then saving as .afdesign I guess I will submit a bug report. Quote
